Jammu, July 30 (IANS) The state police on Monday took out the bodies of a teenaged girl and her friend from a canal in Udhampur district.
The police said the girl was aged 14 years and the boy 21. Their bodies were removed from a canal in Chenani area of Udhampur district.

“We recovered the footwear of the girl and the youth on the banks of the canal. We also recovered handwritten notes and a diary which said the two were taking the extreme step as they feared opposition from their families to their association,” said the police.
